OPERATION
Auger Control
The auger control is located on the left handle. Squeeze the control
grip against the handle to engage the augers and start snow throwing
action. Release to stop.
Drive Control / Auger Clutch Lock
The drive control is located on the right handle. Squeeze the control
grip against the handle to engage the wheel drive. Release to stop.
The drive control also locks the auger control so you can operate
the chute directional control without interrupting the snow throwing
process. If the auger control is engaged simultaneously with the drive
control, the operator can release the auger control (on the left handle)
and the augers will remain engaged. Release both controls to stop the
augers and wheel drive.
IMPORTANT: Always release the drive control before changing
speeds.
Wheel Steering Controls
The left and right wheel steering controls are located on the underside
of the handles. Squeeze the right control to turn right; squeeze the left
control to turn left.
NOTE: Operate the snow thrower in open areas until you are familiar
with these controls.
Ignition Key
The ignition key is a safety devise. It must be fully inserted in order for
the engine to start. Remove the ignition key when the snow thrower is
not in use.
Do not turn the ignition key in an attempt to start the engine. Doing so
may cause it to break.
Four-Way Chute Control™
The chute directional control is located on the left side of the dash
panel.
• To change the direction in which snow is thrown, squeeze the
button on the joy-stick and pivot the joy-stick to the right or to the
left.
• To change the angle/distance which snow is thrown, pivot the
joy-stick forward or backward.

a clogged chute assembly. Shut off engine
and remain behind handles until all moving

Cut the cable tie before operating the snow thrower.
